Arm Description

Root Instrumentation + Enamel Matrix Derivative Application Periodontal treatment is delivered with ultrasonic instrumentation performed with fine tips. The approach chosen is the one- stage full-mouth ultrasonic debridement in which all the treatment of diseased sites is performed within one hour. In this group, at the end of the instrumentation enamel matrix derivatives is placed in all sites with a periodontal pocket depth deeper than 5mm.

Root Instrumentation Periodontal treatment is delivered with ultrasonic instrumentation performed with fine tips. The approach chosen is the one- stage full-mouth ultrasonic debridement in which all the treatment of diseased sites is performed within one hour.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Pocket probing depth (PPD)
Changes in PPD, measured orally through clinical examination. Unit of measure: mm

Secondary Outcome Measures

Clinical attachment level (CAL)
Changes in CAL, measured orally through clinical examination. Unit of measure: mm
Recession of the gingival margin (REC)
Changes in REC, measured orally through clinical examination. Unit of measure: mm
Number of sites with Pocket probing depth deeper than 5mm
Changes, measured orally through clinical examination. Unit of measure: N
Percentage of sites with Pocket probing depth deeper than 5mm
Changes, measured orally through clinical examination. Unit of measure: %
Percentage of bleeding sites which measured Pocket probing depth deeper than 5mm at baseline
Changes, measured orally through clinical examination. Unit of measure: %
Full-mouth plaque score (FMPS)
Changes in Full-mouth plaque score, measuring the amount of dental plaque on the teeth orally through clinical examination. Unit of measure %. The scale ranges from 0% (minimum value, i.e. plaque absent) to 100% (maximum value: all areas are occupied by plaque). 0% would the ideal value. No sub-scales are included.
Full-mouth bleeding score (FMBS)
Changes of Full-mouth bleeding score, measuring the number of gingival areas that bleed after gingival probe passage. It is measured oral through clinical examination. Unit of measure %. The scale ranges from 0% (minimum value, i. e. gingival inflammation is absent) to 100% (maximum value: all gingival areas are inflamed). 0% would be the ideal value. No sub-scales are included.
Oral Health Index Profile-14 (OHIP-14)
Changes in Oral Health Index Profile-14 measured through administration of specific questionnaire . Responses for the questionnaire are made on a Likert-type five-point scale, coded 0 (never), 1 (hardly ever), 2 (occasionally), 3 (fairly often), and 4 (very often); with scores ranging from 0-56 and higher scores indicating worse
Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ)
Responses for the questionnaire are made on a Likert scale, coded from strongly disagree = 1 to strongly agree = 6, with the higher scores corresponding to higher levels of happiness. For the 12 negatively worded items, the reverse coding is necessary before calculating the total score, which is a sum of individual item scores. Score range is from 1 as a minimum and 6 as a maximum score.
High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP)
analyzed through blood sampling. Unit of measure: mg/L
Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c)
analyzed through blood sampling. Unit of measure: mmol/mol

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to compare periodontal treatment with or without the adjunct of an enamel matrix derivative in terms of periodontal healing in diabetic patients.
Detailed Description
Patients with periodontitis will be randomly allocated to two groups. In both groups, periodontal root instrumentation will be performed. In the test group, an additional flapless application of enamel matrix derivatives will be granted for sites with pockets deeper than 5 mm. Metabolic glucose control as measured through blood testing and local parameters of periodontal health will be measured at baseline and three months after treatment completion.
